I see how it's going to be. DQ is going to sell badly the week I make it seem like it'll do well... -.-

Is it clear that 1 pre-order= 1pt? Wouldn't it be quite silly to predict sales, and FW based on a couple of hundred units?

Complete comic

I heard that Comgnet only does this for a few of their owns stores and that comgnet represents around 1/500th of sales in Japan. So who knows.

Do preorders have any meaning in the word of digital releases?

yes they give an indicatio of intial week sales

digimon and DMC will each sell between 50 and 70,000

All bow to me the VGChartz current reigning 3DS prediction champion

Bet with tbone51: Pokeon X & pokemon Y will not sell more than 8 million in 2013

jarrod said:The Xbox360 or ps3 will not sell more than 75million units

July 2009 daveJ said: True the wii has a large lead now but by 2017 the most likely result will be 1. ps3 2. xbox360 3. wii <-- wii's successor launched in 2011 effectively killing sales of the wii

2009 daveJ said: The wii will not break the 50% marketshare barrier it will go below the 40% marketshare barrier though in the future. VGChartz members: Impossible, youre an idiot that knows nothing about sales

Part two of my guess of "things that will show up soon" is complete! This time, it was the PS3 title which has been riding high on amazon for quite some time. Sadly, the other game was Metal Gear, rather predictably.

Slow day otherwise. 'Alright' for Dragon Quest, Metal Gear and Dynasty Warriors. One for PSO. The guy from yesterday must've told his friend.
